Does the plate actually release pressure to the atmosphere or is all just for the sound of it?

This plate releases pressure to atmosphere for sound purposes.

Its a simple spacer, it does not affect the way the car runs, nor does it change the boost level. The dealership should not care about it, and if you are concerned, you could always remove it in about 5-10 minutes as it is held in place with 3 bolts.

Does this help the turbo spool faster or help it hold a more consistent boost pressure between shifts?

1 Answer

This only makes the oem diverter valve sound more like a aftermarket HKS/Greddy style blow off valve. It does nothing for boost pressure, spool up, etc.

How do these sound on the auto trans darts? Do they hardly ever purge?

1 Answer

customer service rep

The OEM diverter works on both automatics and manual transmission cars. The automatics will still be very noticeable sound wise and you'll still enjoy the new sound!

So I installed this plate on my Dart but for some reason it under certain pressures when i shift makes a strange brief horn honk type of noise along with the wish sound. Is this normal or did I install this incorrectly. I did install a k&N cold air intake at the same time but don't think it is a result from that. Doesn't do it all the time. I say maybe when I shift around 3500rpm.

The more boost your Dart makes, the more the OEM diverter will open, and make noise. If your Dart is making low boost (Say for example, your driving leisurely with part throttle) then you'll have less of a noise, and even an echoing type noise. Dont worry, as long as you have not lost power, and it still makes a solid whoosh noise at full throttle you're good!

What is the biggest difference between this Forged plate and MPX plate?
Does any sound louder than the other?

1 Answer

Customer Service Rep

The only difference design wise is the MPx has vents on all three sides, whereas the Forge has vents on two sides. There is no difference in sound or loudness.

i wanna know how does this forge diverter work..will it get dust in the holes cuz i live in the desert and will it loose boost cuz of the new multiair turbo set up because its a recicular boost so it needs to circulate that boost so by having this holes will it loose that boost

1 Answer

customer service rep

There are three holes in the Forge diverter spacer, and because only pressure, no vacuum goes through the holes, no sand or debris will enter the motor or turbocharger.

When the blow off valve opens its a quick release of boost pressure and the amount of air that is released will not cause lag or delay.

Would this work on my 2016 Dodge Dart 1.4?

1 Answer

customer service rep

Yes it will, and every product on our website will work with your Dart 1.4 unless otherwise noted on the product page.

Aj

Would this work for the 2.4?

1 Answer

customer service rep

Absolutely not. This is for the 1.4 Turbo engine. It will not fit the 2.0 or 2.4 engines as they are not turbo engines.

Will this product put any sort of stress on the turbo or engine?

1 Answer

customer service rep

No, it just releases air to atmosphere. Its a incredibly simple piece with no moving parts. Mopar released a part like this back in 2003 for the Neon SRT-4 and millions of miles were racked up by SRT-4 drivers with it with zero problems.

I don't understand how adding a spacer can make the sound with the stock diverter. I don't understand how it works.

1 Answer

Customer Service Rep

The factory diverter is basically a valve. When the pcm sends a signal for it to open, it opens, releases pressure back into the inlet of the turbo. When you install the Forge plate, instead of the air being rerouted into the turbo, its released into the atmosphere. You then hear the sound release, like a blow off valve. Because its such a small amount of air, no loss of power, or other issues is seen.

Customer Service Rep

Yes of course this will work with the Go Fast Bits Diverter. We have a package with this exact same plate, and the GFB plus our longer bolt kit in the exact same category as this item.

Hello, just wanted to clarify that this will also fit my Fiat Abarth 500 right? Also, will this install affect anything or is it just for that wooosh sound? Thank you again!

Customer Service Rep

As of 3/8/18, this fits ALL FIAT/Dodge/Jeep vehicles with the 1.4 Turbo engine. Dart, 500 Abarth, 500 Turbo, 500X, Jeep Renegade, Fiat 124 Spider, etc. No, this will not affect anything performance wise, and there are no check engine lights, etc. It just makes noise like a blow off valve! =)

I have a stock 2013 dart and want the "whishing" noise when I let off the throttle. Do I need to get a whole new valve or will the blow off plate do the job?

1 Answer

Customer Service Rep

The very first paragraph of this product description says:

If you have a 2012+ Fiat 500 Turbo/Abarth, 2013-2016 Dart 1.4L, or a 2015+ Renegade 1.4L and want a blow off valve noise instead of a whisper quiet engine, this is for you!

So, this is what you need, and you just need this piece, it bolts in between the turbo and the diverter valve.
